The Perl module 'libnet' (implementing Net::SMTP, Net::Cmd)
has recently been upgraded from 1.19 to 1.20
(also known as port net/p5-Net in FreeBSD ports collection).

It unwarrantedly attempts to convert 8-bit characters
to UTF-8 without considering a declared MIME type.

See a bug report in CPAN:
  http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=24835

Please stay away from libnet-1.20 until the problem
is fixed, or apply the following simple patch to one
of its files:
